Spa night with my kiddos

We had such a wonderful stay—my kids were asking if we could live there! The room was cozy and comfortable, and the large whirlpool tub was a huge hit. It was big enough for me to stretch out and relax, and both of my teenagers could climb in together to enjoy a magical bubble-filled soak. Evenings were filled with popcorn, movies, and cuddle parties in front of the big screen, which made it feel like a special getaway at home. The breakfast area had a super cool pancake machine where we could watch our pancakes being made fresh, and the warm cookies served in the afternoon were such a thoughtful touch. Every staff member we interacted with was friendly and welcoming—from check-in to check-out. Our 2 nights at the Weathervane Inn gave us just the reset we needed, and we’re already talking about coming back. Highly recommend!

Beautiful view of lake. Such lovely friendly & helpful staff. Rooms have fireplace & jacuzzi tub and a walkout patio! This is crazy! Adorable cafe attached to inn. Convenient grocery store across the street. Several cute shops and restaurants nearby. I do not want this place to be discovered as I want it all for myself!

We had an upstairs city view room. The room had a whirlpool tub- they said all their rooms do. When we filled it, dirty gunk came out of the vents.We loved the in-room fireplace. The beds were firm but nice. Everything else seemed very clean. The flavored coffee and freshly baked cookies in the lobby were amazing. Breakfast was ok. Plenty of options but no eggs & bacon. Will definitely go back! Over all clean, well maintained.
